KPBS is excited to offer the first-ever KPBS Convergence Boot Camp for public media general managers and their key management.

It’s clear, from the number of calls and station visits KPBS gets, that learning from KPBS’ story of convergence can be instrumental to other public media stations’ successful transition. This is why KPBS is bringing station leaders together—in person—to learn the nuts and bolts of what it took to get where it is today.

During these two action-packed days, you will:

• Learn what it takes, starting at the top, to merge your organization into an efficient public media organization.
• Meet KPBS staffers who have worked through the convergence process and can share their expertise and advice
• Gain new knowledge and take away materials that will help guide you through the process.
• Have one-on-one, honest conversations with station leaders about the ups and downs of the process.
• Ask our news staff, technicians, fundraisers, and directors your burning questions
• See the KPBS new, state-of-the-art, collaborative workspace in action
• Network with fellow public media folks
• Learn how to keep the process of convergence moving forward at your station
